Description:

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx

People's lives don’t stop in refugee camps. The need to learn, play and hope is just as important, if not more so, in camps than anywhere else. So, how can you support these needs?

Laura tells the story of a circus school, which was opened by young Syrian talents, Sirkus Magenta and FCA @FCA_global in Za'atri, Jordan. With her experience in Finnish education sector development and learning solutions, Laura is working with projects strengthening access to quality education in fragile contexts: refugee situations and developing countries.
